Maybe this should have gone in the "Odd News" thread, but it's so bizarre I think perhaps it needs its own:

Police on Capitol Hill are baffled by an attempted robbery that began with a handgun put to the head of a teenager and ended in a group hug.
It started about midnight on June 16 when a group of friends was finishing a dinner of marinated steaks and jumbo shrimp on the back patio of a District of Columbia home. That's when a hooded man slid through an open gate and pointed a handgun at the head of a 14-year-old girl.

The rest of the story . . .

Note that the police and reporters got the grill menu, and it's featured in the opening paragraphs. :rolleyes:
